You know they used to have vats of morphine, dip a rag in, wash the wound and if you didn't die, well... that's great! Or pregnancies were 50/50, you live or you die.

    @@Celtics20 How much money do these people generate? How much money do pro athletes generate? Your paycheck's not determined by how hard the job is. It's determined by how profitable/unique you are. In sports, there is a market value that each player has. Players on the lower end will struggle to get a contract, while players like Lebron James will have a guaranteed 30 million salary. If the Lakers think he's getting paid too much and try to lower his salary, another team will be happy to pay him 30 million. This is because there is no one that can replace Lebron. These surgeons? Just hire the next one behind him if the first one doesn't has any complaints.
